Default brake pad piston heat insulator/shield


Anybody think this would help brake fluid boiling resistance:

Always looking for simple bolt-on brake cooling ideas,

I think it probably would. Somehow insulating the fluid from the hot pad should help. How much? I dunno.
Used in conjonction with air blown on the caliper and pads, you might get some good results.
Of course, most people are satisfied by just using air ducts blowing on the caliper. Which you can fabricate for very little money. If that is sufficient, why invest in expensive Ti parts?

They don't sell them for Honda/Acura anyway.
